I honestly dont know A/R figures and stuff... It looks big enough. Hopefully not too big.  The guy i bought it from sells lots of turboes and has tried "everything" so i followed his recommandations (an enthusiast not a vender)
Lets hope it does the trick!
It's oil and water-cooled.
I got a XS pop-off valve too.  |
I hate to put a damper on your enthusiasm, but I had one of those turbos and sold it. They're not suitable for diesel use as they can't produce boost at low flow without surging.
It's called a T25G.
The compressor wheel has a very high trim (intake diameter is very close to the overall wheel diameter) which allows the boost to surge back through it when you try to get high boost at the rpm that diesel engines run. This surge over time damages the compressor blades, when they fail they head into your engine.
The T25 I'm currently running is a 60 trim which has a 40mm intake, that one is 74 trim which has a 44mm intake.
